Summary Something Bill dreads the most is about to happen: His mother Louise is coming to visit. Bill's problem with his mother is that she "guilts" him into getting whatever she wants, and he always complies. Judy suggests that the next time Louise makes him feel miserable, he should ignore her and not take the bait. Bill thinks he and Louise should try to have an adult conversation, because in her eyes, he's Billy. When Bill finds out it doesn't work, he goes to Judy and tries it her way. He puts Judy's method to use when he takes Louise to the bank and she starts to complain about the family's minivan. When Bill says nothing, it aggravates her and she gets out of the van. When Bill threatens to leave her, she refuses to budge and Bill drives away. When Bill realizes what he's done, he looks for her but can't find her. He returns home without her, but she comes back on her own and says that she's gotten a job at Playpen Video, an adult-video store. Bill feels that she's only working there to get attention. When they get into a fight, Louise leaves the house, saying she will stay with her sister Doris and will continue to work at Playpen Video. When Bill tries to patch things up, Louise admits she got the job to "guilt" him, but she has her reasons for keeping the job.
